Download when clicking a link?

I'm using Google Chrome, and about half the time when i click a link to anything forum related. It will start to download what i clicked. Not sure why its doing this. Has anyone else had this happen?

You guys still seeing this? 97 - were you using Chrome as well?

I've not seen this issue... concerned that it's an ad trying to load something...

Oh, really?

Hmm... the mobi is stripped of ads... very odd. I wonder what the deal is on this one. Thanks, guys. I'll push it upwards....

These little bugs, I promise, will get worked out.

I've gotten it when clicking the quote, and Post quick replys buttons aswell. I havent been able to reproduce on another browser yet either. I'm thinking it may be Ad related.

Meant to ask you... was it on the m.f150online.com site or was it just the regular site as displayed with a mobile browser?

Took a screenshot of it. Bottom, you'll see the Download bar wit the "newreply.php" cancelled after it tried to download. Done this when trying to quote someone, this time. But anytime it acts up, i get the same thing, just different names such as "index.php" and so on.
